Hmmm, my backend plays some example samples (mulaw 8000Hz, PCM8 8000Hz)
quite good.
Anyhow, with the backend compiled in, NetBSD can't be booted twice, i.e.
cp /netbsd /dev/reload works but booting from AmigaDOS via loadbsd
won't. (Any suggestions, why ?). 

Maybe, I find the time to debug it this week and send the diffs, but
don't expect this too early (still got much other work to do :-)
